Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) using a pulsed laser is successfully applied in an argon plasma. The laser system consists of a pumping pulse laser fixed at 532 nm and a tunable dye laser. Using a homemade Fabry-Perot interferometer, the large linewidth of the original output is reduced by one order from 4 GHz to 340 MHz. The measured ion temperature is 0.15 eV with a velocity resolution about 200 m/s. It provides great possibility for the combination of LIF and planar LIF using the same pulsed laser system.

In recent years, studies of surfaces at more realistic conditions has advanced significantly, leading to an increased understanding of surface dynamics under reaction conditions. The development has mainly been due to the development of new experimental techniques or new experimental approaches. Techniques such as High Pressure Scanning Tunneling/Force Microscopy (HPSTM/HPAFM), Ambient Pressure X-ray Photo emission Spectroscopy (APXPS), Surface X-Ray Diffraction (SXRD), Polarization-Modulation InfraRed Reflection Absorption Spectroscopy (PMIRRAS) and Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) at semi-realistic conditions has been used to study planar model catalysts or industrial materials under operating conditions.

Spectral Imaging techniques such as Laser-induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and Raman Spectroscopy (RS) enable the localized acquisition of spectral data, providing insights into the presence, quantity, and spatial distribution of chemical elements or molecules within a sample. This significantly expands the accessible information compared to conventional imaging approaches such as machine vision. However, despite its potential, spectral imaging also faces specific challenges depending on the limitations of the spectroscopy technique used, such as signal saturation, matrix interferences, fluorescence, or background emission.

An efficient novel approach is introduced to predict the effectiveness of chemotherapy treatment in lung cancer by monitoring the serum N-glycome of patients combined with artificial intelligence-based data analysis. The study involved thirty-three lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy treatments. Serum samples were taken before and after the treatment.

Heroin as a derivative of morphine contains the alkaloids and flavonoids with plenty of three to five aromatic rings. The latter is known as the main source of fluorescence emission after laser excitation. Here, laser induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy at excitation line of 405 nm with the solvent densitometry method is introduced based on modified Beer-Lambert (MBL), for the rapid and reliable identification of street heroin samples.

The presence of lead ion (Pb) in groundwater poses a serious risk to human health, even at low levels. Therefore, it is essential to develop a new strategy for both selective detection and effective removal of Pb in groundwater, which has been rarely reported. Here, we developed a multi-functional chitosan-based fluorescent sensing membrane (CM-L/CG) by using a casting method for the sensitive/selective detection and removal of Pb in groundwater.
